The traitor revealed! Who will aid Mr. Freeze as he continues his onslaught against The Court of Owls—and how can the Birds hope to stop him?
Hm, I'd say Nora's sister (who became a female version of Mr Freeze to get back at Victor who "ruining Nora's life") but considering Nora, as Victor saw her, never existed in the DCnU... Yeah, I dunno.
NIGHTWING #20

After witnessing so much death in the past few months, how will Nightwing react when he learns a key figure in his life has returned from the grave?
So... Cass Cain (retconned the same way as her mum) or some new figure?

Two new series focusing on the super rich of the DCU, and everyone else.
The Movement #1:
We are faceless. We are limitless. We see all. And we do not forgive.
Who defends the powerless against the GREEDY and the CORRUPT? Who protects the homeless and poverty-stricken from those who would PREY upon them in the DARK OF NIGHT?
When those who are sworn to protect us abuse their power, when toxic government calls down super-human lackeys to force order upon the populace…finally, there is a force, a citizen’s army, to push order BACK. Let those who abuse the system know this as well: We have our OWN super humans now. They are not afraid of your badges or Leagues. And they will not be SILENCED.
We are your neighbors. We are your co-workers. And we are your children.
And The Green Team #1:
INVENTORS! EXPLORERS! ADVENTURERS! Do you need money to finance an important project? Then you should set up a meeting with THE GREEN TEAM!
• Nature of world-changing idea:
• Amount requested:
• Does your project have the potential to:
Fracture space-time?
Replace the combustion engine?
Attract extraterrestrial attention?
Prove/disprove existence of deities?
Piss off The Justice League?
Render the human body obsolete?
If any of the above are checked, please fill out liability release form GT2013-05. Send any 82 drawings, plans, models, or photos with request.
Heh, timely. Very 2012.
